What we do

Northcott Innovation (NI) explores and creates new and unexpected solutions with people with disability for people with disability. We spark and foster ideas that drive all of us towards a more inclusive society.

Our story

NI was seeded in 2014, when Northcott dreamt to create a small agile team dedicated to finding new and innovative ways to support people with disability.

All we do starts by exploring ideas and options with people with disability. We are unwavering in our search for new ways of doing things and seeking solutions, rather than succumbing to historical barriers and road blocks.

How our approach is different

Our alignment to Northcott and our consultative work with other disability service organisations gives us insight to the daily challenges people with disability face. Our work is driven by the desire to hurdle these barriers.

All we do is founded by our co-design approach working with people with disability, frontline staff, families and carers to explore, identify and test solutions that make a difference.

NI thrives on challenges others are uncomfortable to tackle, like supporting people with disability to explore and express their sexuality.
